Murphy Salisbury Sponsored Event Raises Over £8,000

A charity ball sponsored by Stratford-based firm of chartered accountants Murphy Salisbury has raised more than £8,000.

The Midsummer Ball fundraiser, which took place at Wroxall Abbey in June, was organised by Valerie Rooke and Jill Focardi in memory of Valerie’s late husband, Alan. The event was in aid of Cure Leukaemia, a registered charity set up in 2003 to develop a world class specialist clinical haematology centre at Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham.

The evening included a three-course meal and entertainment from London-based band The Jazz Dynamos, as well as a speech by Professor Charles Craddock, a leading haematology consultant at the hospital.

A total of £8,450 was raised on the night, with Valerie and Jill being joined by Paul Salisbury, a consultant at Murphy Salisbury, to present a cheque to Professor Craddock on August 17th.

Paul Salisbury said: “We are delighted to have been able to support an event that raised so much money for such a worthy cause. The night was a great success.”
